The Adult Chair Podcast: Healing Shame

It’s a little bit of a heavy subject today, but it’s one we have to talk about: Healing our Shame. It’s a subject that crosses my office practically daily in insidious and subversive ways. Shame contaminates our work and our relationships and creates a cycle of binary, either/or thinking. But we can take back our power in our relationship with shame if we work to understand it, relate to it, and use the tools we have that are built in to The Adult Chair! Get ready everybody… we’re going to move through some shame today!

Surviving Sexual Child Abuse

Join Erica and me as we explore the content of Janet Bentley’s new book, Don’t Expect Me to Cry. Janet was so kind to join Erica DeLong and me to talk candidly about her book "Don’t Expect Me to Cry". Janet was courageous in sharing her powerful story about the sexual abuse and neglect she experienced as a child by many abusers, including her own father. She is sharing her story to inspire others to know they aren't alone. What has come of all this? Janet powered through her trauma and founded her non-profit, Show Up for Children; create Courageous Survivors, a safe, online environment for people to learn and share experiences about childhood sexual abuse; join the Rape, Abuse & Incest National Network’s Speaker’s Bureau; and become a licensed facilitator of Darkness to Light’s Stewards of Children child sexual abuse prevention training.
